# Kerala cyber police detain TG Mohandas for rape remark 2026-08-09T15:55:40+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Right-wing commentator TG Mohandas was taken into custody Sunday evening by a team from Thiruvananthapuram Cyber Police Station from his house in Mattancherry, Kerala. The arrest follows a YouTube video in which he allegedly said the Jantar Mantar student protest could lead to gang rape and claimed participants “enjoy being raped”. He also reportedly called for curfew and to “open fire” on protesters, saying some might be killed but order would be restored. Police sources say they inspected his home for digital devices linked to his YouTube channel 'Pathrika'. The FIR is based on a complaint that the videos aimed to disturb public peace. The state government had faced criticism for the delay in acting. ## Coverage - ndtv.com - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Tags: Cyber crime, Kerala Police, rape remark, right-wing activist, TG Mohandas, Thiruvananthapuram Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/tg-mohandas-arrested-over-girls-enjoy-rape-remark/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
